Good Start, Daddy"; What an unsus ted prayer, what trusting nssump ion of fatherly love and helpfulness there is in those innocent, pleading words: “Give us a good start. Daddy"; . . So that when we enter into that life and death race men call "earn- ing a livln ". we shall not be un- fairly hood capped at the outset by lack 0f ability to do those things which today's technical age ro- mises will be far more diff cult and intricate tomorrow. " ve us a. ood start, dy", the educations advsnta and op rtunities that are essential to cu tural well-being, prestige. and the res ct of those who will be our bus ness and social competitors WHEII we have grown to manhood. Give us s good start, Daddy, so that the final record of mu‘ ll shall be s lasting mcnumgm, - the memory of a loving father who W188i)’ made sure that we would receive our rightful heritage from his dear hands, regardless of fate. Drearnsr, perhaps. but the faculty to dream was not to moo us. There is s lrealty back‘ of it. ‘more is a beh , _ for the realization of those ideals, A man will remain o. rag-picker as long as he has only the vision of the rag-picker. Our mental attitude, our hearts desire, is our perpetual prayer which Nature answers. She takes it for granted that we desire what we are headed toward. and she helps us to it. People little realize that their desires are heart pray- ers and that they are granted. Most people do not’ realise how sacred a thing n legitimate ambi. tion is. What is this eternal urge within us which ls trying to push us on and on and up and up? It is the ur , the push in the great force with n us. which is perpetual- lv prodding us to do our best and refuses to accept a second best.
